Ziyun Oriental is a consulting firm that helps Chinese businesses and entrepreneurs expand operations into Southeast Asia, specifically Vietnam and Thailand. The company assists Chinese enterprises seeking to move abroad and overseas firms entering China-linked markets. Ziyun Oriental offers three primary services: business feasibility reports, site visiting services, and corporate support. Feasibility reports involve researching target industries, demographics, and regulations to provide written assessments. Site visiting services include on-site due diligence where Ziyun Oriental connects clients with local government contacts, communities, and commercial counterparties. Corporate support services provide post-investment operational assistance, including company registration, office setup, and staff recruitment. Ziyun Oriental operates on a project-by-project basis using fixed-price contracts and typically collects a significant portion of fees upfront. The company maintains a small internal team and uses outsourced staffing to support its site visit operations. Revenue is generated from discrete engagements rather than long-term retainers, and the company maintains high customer concentration. Ziyun Oriental plans to grow by expanding into additional markets like Singapore and Indonesia while investing in data analytics tools to improve research efficiency. The business model benefits from the trend of Chinese enterprises diversifying manufacturing and commercial activities into Southeast Asia.
